BOOM.

Chapter 1948

The encampment shook and there was a sudden surge from within it. Almost instantly, everyone present reacted in kind, rushing toward the sound of danger. Every one of them thought that some beast must have broken through their protective shields and acted against them.

However, when they rushed into the square, all they found was a face that had practically begun haunting them in their dreams.

Sylas Grimblade.

Sylas was about to speak, but Nosphaleen held onto his arm and gave him a smile.

"What kind of Emperor makes announcements on his own?" she said with a cute grin.

Not sure exactly what to say to this, Sylas could only stare and that made Nosphaleen's smile even brighter.

Then her gaze suddenly became frighteningly cold.

"I will say this once and once alone," a frigid air spread, sparks of ice crackling across the once lush earth and pristine tents. "If you want a chance to survive, the only path forward is to follow my Master. If you are dissatisfied with this outcome, make your grievances known now. This will be the one time you may challenge my Master and leave with your lives. Every time beyond this one will mean death."

The geniuses of the Emperor Sanctum were floored. What was this supposed to be? A hostile takeover?

Based on what, exactly?

Even if Sylas fully controlled them here, what would he do about their Ancestors and Elders? And could he even defeat them in the first place?

There were many of them here on the verge of the C-tier, and a few that had already crossed that threshold. Each one was the cream of the crop of their Lineages, and their power might be weaker than the best of organizations like the Seeing Eye Guild or the Weaver Guild, but they would still be firmly within their middle ranks or so.'

Even if Sylas could battle against lower level D-tiers-something they didn't put past him for his level of talent- what good would that talent be against Level 140s and 150s? What about those that had already crept into the C- tiers?

Bulese hung in the crowd herself, her eyes filled with hesitation. She was the only one who had personally seen Sylas battle. She had almost won.

Though she knew that this was because of Maldrith's interference, she hadn't seen Sylas display a might that was too overwhelming.

However... something about Sylas felt different right now.

Very different.

"I'm sick and tired of this bullshit." A cold voice echoed.

Their feet came out heavy, raging sideburns that almost looked like flickering black flames pulsing on the side of his face. In fact, when Sylas looked a second time, it wasn't just that they "looked like" them. But the man's facial hair really was half hair half flame.

That burning continued into the depths of his eyes, a wild Ape Emperor Aura pulsing from him.

'He's close too.' Sylas thought to himself.

God Beasts should have been quite rare amongst the Emperor Sanctum. Of course, this referred to God Beasts in terms of the special Race evolution of the Spirit Beasts, not in terms of actual God Realm Beasts.

That aside, they should have been rare either way. But what was curious was that Sylas putting his thumb on the scale had shifted things.

He had sensed that Kalem, Bulese's brother, had quite some potential to become a God Beast. And now this was already the second person he was meeting who had such potential.

Even without checking his stats, Sylas knew that he was a Level 150 D-tier. He was in the process of building his D-Grade Foundation to set himself up for entry into the C-tier.
